Hey Alexander,

there is only the option "env.java.opts", which can be set in the config. I think you cannot use this to have multiple "-classpath" options when starting Java?

It makes sense to have the option to add something to the classpath. I will check this and fix it. :-) What about "taskmanager.env.java.classpath" and "jobmanager.env.java.classpath" as a configuration key? And maybe an additional "env.java.classpath"?

PS: sorry for the incomplete mail before :D
